Perhaps an even better way to increase your flat bench is to start incorporating decline bench pressing into your routine. The decline has a limited range so you can go a good 20% heavier, which gets you used to the feel of the weights. Sort of a similar principle to what's being described here. Works for me (I can now flat bench 315lbs for 4 reps at only ~160lbs bw, i posted a video of it on reddit since no one believes me when i say it, don't know what my 1 rep max is).

I believe it activates the muscle fully, so all movement feels much lighter at a lighter weight. Seems weird, but me and some buddies used to train bench by doing our one rep max, and then dropping it down to 80% for 3-5 reps, then the one rep max, even if you can’t lift it, you slow negative. Did that for 3 sets with the 1RM in between. No one gave us this exact idea, we had just learned about negatives and the concept of muscle activation in college and thought it might work. Worked for some, not for all. From a data point of one, the shorter guys strength on bench exploded, my bench slowly went up and hit a wall. (6’7 with a naturally narrow build.) But, this is a mere anecdote from some stranger on the internet.
